In October 2026, several locations in the Italian Apennines began infrastructure upgrades to modernize ski lifts and promote year-round tourism. These efforts aim to reduce dependence on winter weather through multi-seasonal models including hiking and cycling. In the Emilia-Romagna region, government funding for the redevelopment of Apennine ski lifts was increased from 900,000 to 2.5 million euros for the 2026-2027 biennium, supporting projects such as the Eremo di Montecopiolo.

By November 2026, the focus shifted toward seasonal preparations following the first snowfall in the Apennines. Locations including Cerreto, Collagna, and Passo di Pradarena reported snow, leading local operators to prepare for winter openings, with some stations targeting dates as early as December 8.
